Sculpt

I am the Director of Digital Marketing for Velo3D.

We needed help accelerating our social media strategy and creative development. We partnered with Sculpt to help enhance our social presence.

We researched multiple vendors and decided on Sculpt because of their tremendous team and their ability to scale with our company as we were in a period of rapid growth.

We partnered with Sculpt to produce 12 pieces of original social content each month and help guide our paid LinkedIn strategy.

We worked with 3 people primarily, the head of the company, the head of paid advertising and a dedicated account manager for our project.

Sculpt helped scale our social presence. During the time we doubled our LinkedIn followers and increased engagement by 4x.

The process was great. We met each week to talk about progress and future asset development. We also added them to our company slack channel which made communications efficient.

They were very responsive throughout our entire project. Responses were always same day. They also enhanced our entire social presence.

I wouldn't change anything.

Sculpt helped us develop, roadmap, and execute an organic social media strategy that is still in use for our company today. They've also helped us enhance our reporting structure, proving value to the greater team for our organic social efforts. And their community engagement efforts have been second to none in helping us define our brand voice on different platforms + venture out of your day to day corporate posting.

Their project management was reliable and efficient. They consistently delivered items on time, and if a deadline is going to be missed, they're very communicative and transparent about it. The team is always super responsive and flexible to our needs.

What impressed us most was their proactive approach and deep understanding of social media trends. They consistently brought creative ideas to the table and adapted quickly to our evolving goals throughout the time we've worked together. They also have great breadth of knowledge on their team - from organic strategy, to content ideation, proactive community engagement, reporting, and paid social.

Nothing that I would change.

I’m the marketing manager at Schneider Electric, a global energy management and industrial automation SaaS company.

We were looking to elevate our social media presence as a B2B company and needed their team to leverage our efforts and strategies.

Sculpt handles our social media campaigns by raising awareness to promote our new offerings. Their team conducts research, evaluates influencer profiles, and launches a vetting process to determine ideal options for our campaign briefs. They’ve particularly reached out to paid influencers, partner companies, and digital platforms to generate more engagement towards our products.

I have two main points of contact.

We found their team via Clutch, along with other candidates. Sculpt had the skill set, price point, and team size we needed, so we chose them.

We’ve spent about $200,000.

Our ongoing engagement with Sculpt started in March 2021.

Sculpt has activated marketable opportunities for us, suggesting and implementing the best practices to elevate our community management and social media engagement. They’ve also amplified our PR coverage and connections.

We communicate via email and ad hoc meetings. Sculpt is an agile team that pivots according to our needs and shares insightful ideas to expedite and improve our project.

We’re most impressed with their in-depth knowledge of social media trends and customer needs. On top of that, Sculpt consistently brings refreshing solutions to the table.

I can’t think of anything negative about their work. Sculpt has been an effective partner to us.

Set clear objectives and metrics and allocate enough time to monitor the project.

I am the senior director of marketing engagement at Frontier Co-op. I lead our internal agency of content, creative and engagement teams. We manufacture and market two national brands: Simply Organic and Frontier Co-op. Our products include organic and conventional spices, herbs, flavorings/extracts, herbal teas, baking/cooking ingredients and wellness products.

We needed Sculpt to manage digital advertising and brand-lift studies for two 9-month long brand campaigns for Simply Organic and Frontier Co-op. These two campaigns were major shifts for us in terms of brand positioning and communications strategy, so we needed a team that could help us reach our new target market, write great ad copy and manage the day-to-day media and optimizations for us.

We wanted to work with a local agency known for excellence in managing digital media and creative. We'd worked with Sculpt on a video project for our sister brand, Aura Cacia.

Sculpt built out the paid campaign infrastructure and tracking within the determined social media platform. They also managed creative optimization for paid campaigns, including edits to existing assets. Sculpt also provided regular reporting and analysis and in-depth reporting and analysis on creative performance.

I did get to work with the principals at Sculpt, including the managing director and CEO. Other team members included digital media planner/buyer, engagement manager, copywriter and designer.

We far exceeded our campaign goals for every single key metric!

The workflow was excellent -- we started out with a very effective set of onboarding meetings, met weekly as the bulk of the campaign was being developed and launched, then dialed back to monthly meetings and reporting once things were up and running for several months.

The leadership on the team is excellent -- Katelin and Josh are hugely talented! They empower each of their team members as well, which helped us to implement our strategy quickly and seamlessly.

No areas for improvement -- we love working with Sculpt and are very pleased with the results of our campaigns!

Our company is a nonprofit cinema in Iowa City, and I am the executive director.

We were embarking on a capital fundraising campaign for our cinema in collaboration with another local arts nonprofit, and we wanted some help getting the word out on social media to both our existing patron base and the broader community at large.

Sculpt worked with us to help brainstorm ideas, as well as to guide us through the process of engaging with the community on social media. That started with us doing Facebook live event for our campaign launch, and since then has consisted of regular updates on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to communicate what was happening with the campaign and try to engage people with the philosophy behind it.

I’ve been in contact with a few different people on their team. I think they have 4–5 individuals on the project in total.

We had actually worked with them a number of years ago when we started out as a cinema, so we were familiar with their work and what they were capable of. Since they are a part of the community and have a good understanding of our organization as well, we decided to work with them again.

We spent about $5,000 on the project in total.

The project ran from February–October 2019.

In terms of numbers, we had 570,000 overall impressions from the campaign, as well as 11,000 comments and reactions and 800 shares, which was way more than what we were initially expecting.

Their team was very organized and scheduled regular meetings with us to make sure that we were up to date about what had happened since we last met and any changes they wanted to propose. For the most part, we communicated over Slack and Airtable, which made things pretty simple to keep track of.

They did a particularly good job of taking some of our existing campaign materials that we had in place for our brand and translating those into the digital and social media realm. Their team was able to use that imagery and copy in bite-sized social media assets, which we really appreciated because it was important to maintain that consistency through the other changes that were taking place for the campaign.

I was very satisfied overall. The biggest challenge was having our team keep up with their pace, so I don’t think there’s anything they should have done differently.

Come into the project with ideas to help you get started but be open to their contributions as well. They brought a lot of great suggestions to the table that helped us refine our goals to the context of social media. Embracing the collaboration between your teams is definitely the key to producing and executing the best results.
